<p>timkerdes, Admittedly, my information is hearsay. It came from meeting some graduate animation students at Pratt and from information given by one professor who taught at both Pratt and SVA. The students actually said that some other students failed projects because they were “too commercial.” I don’t know personally how true their statement was, and it was given in the context of being graduate students.</p>
<p>As for Parsons, let me be clear that I know little about them. I did meet one Parson’s grad who majored in illustration and was considered the best Matte Painter in my daughter’s graduate computer art class.</p>
